PLOT

This haunting series follows the thrilling yet terrifying journeys of Sam and Dean Winchester, two brothers who face an increasingly sinister landscape as they hunt monsters. After losing their mother to a supernatural force, the brothers were raised by their father as soldiers who track mysterious and demonic creatures. Violent memories and relationship-threatening secrets add additional burdens on Sam and Dean as they investigate all things that go bump in the night. As old tricks and tools are rendered useless and friends betray them, the brothers must rely on each other as they encounter new enemies.


OVERVIEW
Supernatural is a great show going on for long before I had cable tv. Unlike other series which gets tiresome or just ridiculous after 6-7 years, supernatural still push on with more mysterious happenings and suspense. Some people (many of my friends) say that they can't watch the show because it's blasphemous towards their religion (Christianity).

They aren't wrong. Supernatural has a habit of injecting stories from the Bible into their story line, they talk about, Angels , demons, arch Angels, Heaven, hell, the 4 horsemen, Eve, Cain and Abel, Lucifer and even went to the extent of God himself (why not Jesus). That one was expected but still shocked me when he was shown😳😳 (in human form of course). What amazes me is that the brothers have lost so much loved ones because they were involved in their lives but still they keep hunting monsters all in the name of carrying on their fathers legacy, that's not very wise, is it?

 This is not like other over dramatic shows or movies where the main character goes
"you have to stay out of it, it's too dangerous" and then the supporting character goes "I can take care of myself".... In Supernatural you'd actually die....🌚🌚
All in all I still love Supernatural, I've followed it till S11 E23 and I'd continue to follow it till the series comes to an end.



TobyTale rating: 8.9/10
